Raser in Borken: Police imposed 288 fines in a week!
The police in the Borken district have carried out comprehensive speed controls in the past few days to increase traffic safety in the region. These measures are essential because excessive speed is one of the main causes for serious traffic accidents. According to Heimatreport , a driver was measured at a speed of 90 km/h within closed towns during the controls on Marienthaler Strasse in Raesfeld-Erle, where only 50 km/h are.
Last week, the police monitored a total of 11,749 vehicles at 20 checkpoints in the entire district. Over 10% of the drivers did not stick to the speed limits. This resulted in the police initiated 288 administrative offense procedures and pronounced 918 warning funds. In 12 cases, driving bans were even issued.
highest speed overrun
The controls revealed significant speed overruns. In Gronau, a driver was measured on the Office of the Office at 129 km/h, whereby only 70 km/h are allowed here. On the B 473 in Bocholt, a vehicle even exceeded the limit of 100 km/h and drove at 157 km/h. Also in Gronau, on Hermann-Ehlers-Straße, speeds of 90 km/h were registered in a 50 km/h area.
The police announced that the controls will continue in the coming weeks. The legal basis for such measures are set in the Road Traffic Act (StVG) and the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO). This regulation ensures that speed controls are systematically and lawfully carried out to ensure traffic safety. According to Rights check , several measurement techniques such as radar, laser and light barriers are in use in order to measure the speed of vehicles.
Technical foundations of speed control
Send the radar devices out of electromagnetic waves, while laser devices use light waves to carry out precise measurements, even in bad weather conditions. Light barriers measure the time a vehicle needs to drive between two sensors, which also contributes to the speed calculation. Latest developments in speed monitoring include the introduction of Section Control for calculating the average speed over longer distances.The legality of these measurements depends on the regular calibration of the devices and the training of the personnel used. Road users also have the right to view the measurement results and protocols and can have the measurements checked by an expert if necessary.
The police in the Borken district not only have traffic safety in mind with these measures, but also reacts to the progressive discussion about the use of modern technologies such as drones on speed monitoring. This could offer an interesting challenge and an opportunity, especially in confusing areas. However, the possibilities that result from new technologies require careful handling of legal requirements and data protection. This makes it clear how important it is to continue to pay attention to technological developments in order to increase safety in road traffic.
